3. CLIENT RESCHEDULING & REFUNDS
   Due to the custom nature of each Package Sheet, all sales are final. The only time a full refund may be available is due to extenuating circumstances that do not allow the Client to reschedule (e.g., death). The Client must notify Company at least 1-2 days before the scheduled session and must meet a specific requirement that will not allow for rescheduling of the session.
   
   
4. COMPANY RESCHEDULING & REFUNDS

The Company is not liable for any failure to render Services that occurs in accordance with this paragraph, including if photographic materials are damaged in processing, lost through camera malfunction, lost in the mail, or otherwise lost or damaged with fault on the part of the photographer.
   
   
5. TARDINESS / NO SHOW
   Client’s failure to show up to its session on time may result in a "no-show," shortened session, or cancellation if such tardiness exceeds 15 minutes. If Client’s session is a mini-session (as specified on the Package Sheet) , tardiness exceeding 5-10 minutes may also result in a "no-show," shortened session, or cancellation.

6. RESHOOTS
   Re-shoots are at the sole and absolute discretion of the Company. Company will not provide any reshoots for regretful personal choices such as hair or clothing style, location dislikes, etc.
   
   
7. IMAGES SELECTED
   The Company will choose the best images from Client’s session. The Company does not show unedited images, nor involve the Client in the process of choosing which images will be selected for the final gallery. The Company spends a great deal of time going through each image individually. Please rest assured that the Company will only provide Client the best of the best and any unappealing images (for example eyes closed, unflattering facial expressions, and most definitely, any images that do not meet the Company’s high professional standards) will get deleted immediately. RAW or unedited images will not be given to the Client. Note: Images selected are up to the photographer and will be given a mix of images. Unless specifically discussed the images do not need to include every option of groupings. You will receive a vast mix of images; however, it is not promoted or promised that you will get every specific pairing of members/ etc.
   
   
8. PHOTO + EDITING STYLE
   The Company believes in creating a culture that sees itself raw. Photos will be edited to enhance coloring, vision, and aesthetics, which can be based on the images you see on aMaesphotography.com and on social platforms. Photos will not be altered to shave away someone’s years or body. The Company believes in the beauty of each human’s characteristics, and personality and 100% believes in being your authentic self. Altering a human’s body plays into body dysmorphia, social stigmas, and mental health crises. The Company refuses to be part of this problem. Instead, the Company chooses to embrace and celebrate the uniqueness we each play on this planet.
